Luka Dončić hasn’t played his first game with the Lakers yet, but fans are super excited for his debut. His trade with Anthony Davis should be the big talk of the internet right now. But the reality seems to be different.
Some NBA fans are more interested in LeBron James’ diamond ring. Due to the ring’s connection to the imminent Super Bowl, it is garnering attention.
During the Lakers’ Saturday night game against the Indiana Pacers, where the purple and gold secured a 124-117 victory, fans noticed something interesting. LeBron James and Luka Dončić were sitting together on the bench since they were absent from the main roster.

But instead of focusing on Dončić’s upcoming Lakers debut, fans couldn’t stop talking about the massive pinky diamond ring on LeBron’s finger. Some fans think LeBron’s ring is a sign that the Lakers are aiming for another championship, especially with Luka Dončić now on the team.
